Snowbound

It’s hard to tell how much snow we got because of the drifting, but probably only about 4″ I’m guessing. It’s lovely with it’s long blue shadows and diamond sparkles where the sun shines, but it is COLD! I thought about bundling up and going out to take pictures, but staying inside where it is warm won out.

Actually, I have not been out the door since Sunday afternoon when I attended the Topeka Civic Theater’s Christmas show “It’s A Wonderful Life- The Musical”. I was pleasantly surprised, it was better than I expected, better than the movie, but too long!

It’s great quilting weather and since my sewing machine seems to have recovered from the bad thread incident I have made good progress, though I am far from done!

My life this past week has not been very exciting, but this afternoon I will venture forth to do my volunteer hours at the Topeka Art Guild Gallery. It will be good to get out…..

    I can smell the smoke, Ruth, and hear the crackling as the flames lick across the dry prairie!!! Wonderful depiction of the spring burns.

    I saw the tease photo you posted today (Jan 2) and had to come here to see the whole piece. This is an amazing piece of artwork. I can’t wait to see how it sparkles after you’ve finished embellishing it.
